A tale of two movies.

The Visitor is an exceptional film. A film without big moments, theatrics or even great surprises, but it takes you to a very warm place. Can't tell you much without giving it all away but it's about a near-depressive professor with a very unremarkable existence who redisovers a lost rhythm through the eyes of two unwanted guests. A Syrian drummer and his Senegalese girlfriend. Rent it, steal it somehow watch it.

And then I put myself through Madhur Bhandarkar's Fashion. The film has more cliches than a cricket commentator's vocab and more potholes in the plot than a Bangalore roads. Bhandarkar is obviously much more at home in Chandni Bar than in the trippy underbelly of high fashion. It shows.
